Lincoln-Way Central auto students partnered with the New Lenox Safe Community Coalition to provide free winter vehicle inspections for seniors in the community this week. Guided by Lincoln-Way staff, these students examined each car, checking fluids, batteries, lights, belts and hoses, underside suspension, and inspected tires for tread wear, cracks and dry rot.
Upon completion, a Lincoln-Way staff member met with each vehicle owner to go over the details of their inspection, including recommendations for additional maintenance.
A big thank you to everyone who participated and made this event a huge success!
